Quick Facts 

IGNITE is one of the newest perennial ryegrasses available. It produces an early and dense turf and will maintain a dark green color all season long. It also offers excellent wear tolerance and high disease resistance. Ignite transitions better than any other perennial ryegrass cultivar making it a top choice for winter overseeding situations. For a fast, easy, low maintenance lawn, it's hard to beat ignite.

 

Ignite was developed for permanent poly-species turfgrass blends and mixtures containing improved perennial ryegrass, Kentucky bluegrass, chewings, slender creeping and strong creeping red fescues, colonial bentgrass and turf type tall fescue. Ignite can also be used extensively in winter overseeding programs on greens, tees and fairways either alone or in species mixtures.
